3D Illustrator Daniel Aristizábal Surreal, Candy-Colored Pop Art

We first found Medellin-based 3D illustrator and art director Daniel Aristizábal through his mesmerizing vision of the “hatching of the universe” for the Spanish fashion and design magazine La Monde. In the editorial “Cósmica y sus huevos” Aristizábal depicts a psychedelic yolk emerging from a pair of disembodied hands. The style of this editorial represents the illustrator’s interest in geometry, Dada, pop art and candy-colored futurism in his surrealist renderings.

For MOLD’s design week newspaper, SNACKS #01, Aristizábal created “A Long Lasting Love Affair,” to represent his continued interest in working with food as an inspiration and subject for his work. “There is no love as strong and lasting as the one between food and my heart,” he tells MOLD. See more of the illustrators work for clients that include Port Magazine, Hatsu Tea, Oddpears and Wired.
